      C                               
 I've  tried and tried to run and hide
           C7           G7  
 To find a  life that's  new
     C              F       C    
 But  where I go, I  always  know
            G7         C    
 I can't es- cape from  you.
 
 A jug of wine to numb my mind
 But what good does it do
 The jug runs dry and still I cry
 I can't escape from you.
 
 These wasted tears are souvenirs
 Of a love I thought was true
 Your memory is chained to me
 I can't escape from you.
 
 There is no end, I can't pretend
 That dreams will soon come true
 A slave too long to a heart of stone
 I can't escape from you.
